In Ken Hinkley's first year as Port Adelaide coach, the club did what few thought possible, not only returning to September action but eliminating perennial finalists Collingwood in the first week.

It was a momentous occasion after finishing 14th the previous season, but it's not the game which the Power choose to reflect on when thinking about their 2013 campaign.

Instead, they want to remember the losses to the competition's benchmark sides, particularly a 74-point hiding at the hands of grand finalists Fremantle in round 22, and use the pain to drive them to a new level this season.
